1Rejoice in the LORD, O righteous ones; it is fitting for the upright to praise Him.
1For David, when he changed his countenance before Achimelech, who dismissed him, and he went his way. [1 Kings 21]
2Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to Him with ten strings.
2I will bless the Lord at all times, his praise shall be always in my mouth.
3Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully with a shout of joy.
3In the Lord shall my soul be praised: let the meek hear and rejoice.
4For the word of the LORD is upright, and all His work is trustworthy.
4O magnify the Lord with me; and let us extol his name together.
5The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of His loving devotion.
5I sought the Lord, and he heard me; and he delivered me from all my troubles.
6By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, and all the stars by the breath of His mouth.
6Come ye to him and be enlightened: and your faces shall not be confounded.
7He piles up the waters of the sea; He puts the depths into storehouses.
7This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him: and saved him out of all his troubles.
8Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere Him.
8The angel of the Lord shall encamp round about them that fear him: and shall deliver them.
9For He spoke, and it came to be; He commanded, and it stood firm.
9O taste, and see that the Lord is sweet: blessed is the man that hopeth in him.
10The LORD frustrates the plans of the nations; He thwarts the devices of the peoples.
10Fear the Lord, all ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
11The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the purposes of His heart to all generations.
11The rich have wanted, and have suffered hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not be deprived of any good.
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His inheritance!
12Come, children, hearken to me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
13The LORD looks down from heaven; He sees all the sons of men.
13Who is the man that desireth life: who loveth to see good days?
14From His dwelling place He gazes on all who inhabit the earth.
14Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
15He shapes the hearts of each; He considers all their works.
15Turn away from evil and do good: seek after peace and pursue it.
16No king is saved by his vast army; no warrior is delivered by his great strength.
16The eyes of the Lord are upon the just: and his ears unto their prayers.
17A horse is a vain hope for salvation; even its great strength cannot save.
17But the countenance of the Lord is against them that do evil things: to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
18Surely the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear Him, on those whose hope is in His loving devotion
18The just cried, and the Lord heard them: and delivered them out of all their troubles.
19to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.
19The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a contrite heart: and he will save the humble of spirit.
20Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
20Many are the afflictions of the just; but out of them all will the Lord deliver them.
21For our hearts rejoice in Him, since we trust in His holy name.
21The Lord keepeth all their bones, not one of them shall be broken.
22May Your loving devotion rest on us, O LORD, as we put our hope in You.
22The death of the wicked is very evil: and they that hate the just shall be guilty.
